Dave,
This is a great Web site you have created to help Vets with any number of problems we might be having. I saw your message and immediately went there and requested your help in my application to the VA for disability benefits related to exposure to Agent Orange. I have a terminal cancer called Multiple Myeloma (MM) which the VA has recoginized a being caused by exposure to Agent Orange. They give automatic disability rating (or so they say) to folks exposed to it in Viet Nam and who have developed any of 10 listed diseases (MM is one of them). A couple of years ago, they quietly announced that they had sprayed it along the DMZ in Korea during the 1968-69 period. I was there in 1968 AND 1969 at Camp Casey, just south of the DMZ. I'm now looking for any assistance I might get from others to enable me to let them (VA) know "... when, where, and how I was exposed". Frankly, I believe I could have been exposed as a result of wind drift or ground water pollution, since Camp Casey was so close to the DMZ. Recently another vet who got there in July 1969 told me they were spraying Agent Orange EVERY NIGHT in CAMP CASEY, allegedly to"keep the bugs away". I left there in August 1969, but I never really noticed it. Does anyone know of others who were at Camp Casey from June 1968 to August 1969? If so, please email me right away, as I only have 20 days left to respond to the VA, or they "...may process my claim based only on what they already have".
THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ANYONE WHO CAN HELP ME WITH THIS, AND THANKS TO YOU DAVE, FOR CREATING SUCH A GREAT NEW WEB SITE TO HELP ALL US VETS!
